Have a trip planned to Portugal in late September. How concerned should I be that travel may be restricted for Americans again due to the Delta variant? Are people still planning international trips for the fall? Or waiting to see how this pans out? We are fully vaccinated. This is a trip we rebooked after having to cancel in April 2020. Will be so sad if we have to cancel again 😢

I would keep an eye on how the UK is doing. They MAY be over the delta spike. Data over the next week will be really important. Portugal doesn’t have as many people vaccinated as the UK, but they are at 66% with one dose.

I’m vaccinated and have a trip to Portugal planned in late august. My team in the EU seems to think they won’t fully shut down again, however today the CDC upgraded Portugal & Spain to ‘level 4 do not travel’.

Sorry to hear that - I hope you get to make that trip sometime in the future!

Just came back from there. Portugal is lowkey a hot mess with covid. No social distancing what so ever. People are wearing masks thoughout most cities, exceptions are some tourists or popular bar areas. Honestly, I don’t think they know wtf they’re doing. They did recently ramp up their vaxx campaign so most of the elderly population are vaccinated but anyone under 40 are not vaccinated yet. They have new covid updates every 2 wks so keep an eye out for those but it was stressful when I went. However, I would plug that they’re desperate for tourist money right now and happy to see us

I’m in the same boat, booked 2020 and rebooked Portugal when things were looking up. Now Portugal is on the Do Not Travel list and my trip is later this month… I’m torn on going through with it given Delta, even though I’m fully vaccinated

Yes, retested when the last results were past 3 days. I utilized the proctor, though it is only needed for getting back into the US. I don’t think it matters for restaurants/hotels, the rapid antigen would work.
